What is about relatives which sending 10-50 merit to each other?

We're destroying more merits than we're sending. Like, way more., give it time and the spammers run out of sMerit.

I think that tagging may be appropriate in particularly obvious cases, or particularly egregious cases involving hundreds of merit points and several posts. But generally you should start out by assuming good faith, and only change that opinion as the evidence really piles up.
This isn't easy
